The rest of a remarkable life (for earlier volume, see 5/4/07 post). He preached through Romans and Ephesians, taking hundreds of sermons. He was involved in much turmoil about ecumenism and broke with Packer. He believed in personal fellowship but no organizational fellowship with liberals. He believed in evangelism, but not in decisionism. He had no elders; he stopped baptizing infants and dedicated them instead. He baptized believers but didn't immerse.
He died of colon cancer. He retired and wrote for several years after his first cancer surgery. He respected Billy Graham but disagreed on invitations. He studied Puritans and had a Puritan conference. He had a great ministry, which still continues. He spoke at Wheaton College.
